NOTE
The Oxylog 3000 plus Pocket Guide is not a replacement or substitute for the Instructions for Use.
Any use of the device requires full understanding and strict observation of the Instructions for Use.
The Oxylog 3000 plus classifies alarm messages ac-
cording to three priority levels and identifies these ac-
cordingly with the aid of exclamation marks:
!!! Warning High priority alarm message
!! Caution Medium priority alarm message
! Advisory Low priority alarm message
In the following table, the alarm messages are listed in
alphabetical order. If an alarm occurs, the table helps to
identify causes and remedies. The different causes and
remedies should be worked through in the order listed
until the cause of the alarm has been resolved.
When multiple alarms occur, they are displayed accor-
ding to their Alarm Rank, as illustrated in the table be-
low. A lower number has a higher rank.

Cause
Spontaneous breathing by the
patient has failed, or
disconnection.
Faulty flow sensor.
The ventilator has automatically
switched over to mandatory
ventilation after detecting an
apnoea (only in SpnCPAP
mode).
The Oxylog 3000 plus draws its
power from the internal battery
due to the absence of an
external power supply. There is
only approximately 10 minutes
of operating time remaining in
the internal battery.
The flow measuring hoses are
connected incorrectly.
Remedy
Check patient condition.
Ventilate in VC-CMV mode.
Ensure that hose connections
are tight.
Replace flow sensor.
Check patient condition.
Check ventilation settings. To
return to the original ventilation
mode: Press the Alarm Reset
key.
The ventilator must
immediately be reconnected to
the mains supply or an onboard
power supply, or a fully charged
battery must be installed
(ventilation stops while
installing the battery).
Connect the flow measuring
lines correctly.
